There were a few big, modern suburban homes, but I skipped them, searching for older places, reminiscent of country life in the past. This barn, wagon and outbuildings was just what I was looking for:
I drove right by this home, thinking it didn't look old enough, but then backed up to snap a picture when I noticed, on my way by, how scenic it was. What a lovely home in the country:
I stopped to photograph this home, but several small, furiously barking dogs sent me quickly on my way. It wasn't until I got home and looked at the photo that I saw the hanging deer carcass, the bird feeder and the big dog:
Peru Road has some prosperous looking Amish farms, and this one is perhaps the biggest and most picturesque:
This is the house which goes with the above farm:
There were corn fields and hay fields all along the road:
This honey stand stopped me in my tracks because I recognized it. I used to buy honey from this self-serve stand when it was on the highway, but then it disappeared. Apparently the bee keeper moved to Peru Road - or maybe he quit keeping bees and sold the stand:
This magnificent barn was behind the honey stand:
A field of Amish corn shocks:
Another prosperous looking Amish home:
And a beautiful Amish barn. There was more yet to see on Peru Road, and I'll post Part 2 tomorrow:
